nathan will be home for christmas!
We're sorry we haven't updated this in awhile! Jaimee and I just finished our finals today and we're so glad it's finally over. Nathan has been pretty stable these past two weeks. He has had a couple of episodes where he would have an irregular heart beat and increased blood pressure, but it would only last a short period of time. The doctors are amazed at Nathan's current condition. His fontanel feels nice and soft. Dr. Auguste, a pediatric neurosurgeon, says "He looks fantastic". One week after we were told that Nathan would die, Dr. Auguste explained to us that somehow his brain was able to redirect the blood using different veins and arteries which helped reduce the intracranial pressures. "Usually this isn't the case," Dr. Auguste says. "It is a hard task to ask of the brain, this usually doesn't happen." On that note we'll be home for Christmas! Nathan's first Christmas! He will be discharged sometime tomorrow. He will be going home with a feeding tube and will continue his physical and occupational therapies. God is good!! God continues to answer our prayers!! Thank you for praying and we urge you to continue praying because God is listening! Please continue to pray for full restoration and healing. We are praying and looking forward to seeing Nathan's smile again someday. God bless!
In Christ,
Nathan's Dad
